Racist vandals attack Jewish landmarks

RACISTS went on the rampage spraying swastikas and anti-Semitic graffiti on Jewish landmarks in south Dublin on Tuesday night.

Gardaí confirmed that swastikas had been daubed on the Jewish Museum in Portobello, while a synagogue and Jewish cemetery were also targeted in the overnight attacks.

Raphael Siev, museum curator, said the Jewish community was not expecting to be the victim of racist intimidation. “This is quite a sustained assault and the idiots who are doing it certainly have given no indication what is their gripe, their complaint or concerns. They are just acting in an idiotic way.”
